Casinos and Wilmette: Follow the Money

You read it here a year ago, but I thought it was a joke. Now I find that casinos are becoming involved in Wilmette politics. They have granted over $100,000 to political groups (disguised as charities) through their own foundation. Their grants are Housing Opportunity Development Corporation $80,000; and Interfaith Housing Center for the Northern Suburbs $25,000. You can follow the money by clicking here.
